XSLT for Dummies

Summary: THE XSLT book I have been waiting for!
Review: I have (and I will) read lots more books dealing with XSLT transformations for XML content, but there is something about the Dummies series that I find so helpful and/or reassuring. I don't like having my time wasted, but when they're done right Dummies books maintain a tone and scope that tells me just enough about everything I need to know in a topic. I read them and then I go on to O'Reillys (or whatever) with what feels like a pretty solid introductory knowledge. When they're good, I love the Dummies. I've been looking forward to this one for about a year and a half, and it has turned out to be just what I'd have hoped.

Summary: Make this the first XSLT book that you read.
Review: I tried reading Tidwell and Tennison, but found them hard going. This book will get you going in XSLT, thereafter you may wish to resort to a heavier tome for more detail.

Summary: Excellent XSLT book
Review: I've now read 4 different books covering XSLT, and it wasn't until I read this one that it finally made sense to me. Nothing is taken for granted in this book; he teaches XSLT from the beginning and enables you to learn it from the ground up. I highly recommend this book for anyone struggling with XSLT that needs some solid, core instruction.

Summary: easy to read but not very advanced
Review: The book has many complete examples, so it is easy to read and use. As its name indicates, it does not go into the more advanced features. All in all, it's quite suitable for beginners.

Summary: Excellent XSLT Book
Review: There are very few books that I'd rave about but this is one. Mr. Wagner has made it easy for those of us in the programming world to finally enjoy this elegant language and methodology. He provides what I feel in my 20+ year career, is the easiest and most complete approach to learning XSLT.
